Growth, Development and Yield in Pure and Mixed Forest Stands
Objective: Ecosystems with mixed species compared to the ones with pure compositions provide a broader range of options in the fields of biodiversity, conservation, protection and restoration. Nearly all forest plantations are established as monocultures, but research has shown that there are potential advantages to be gained by using carefully designed species mixtures in place of monocultures...

متن کاملModeling of Two Different Water Uptake Approaches for Mono- and Mixed-Species Forest Stands
To assess how the effects of drought could be better captured in process-based models, this study simulated and contrasted two water uptake approaches in Scots pine and Scots pine-Sessile oak stands. The first approach consisted of an empirical function for root water uptake (WU1). The second approach was based on differences of soil water potential along a soil-plant-atmosphere continuum (WU2)...
متن کاملFrom Observations to Evidence About Effects of Mixed-Species Stands
A critical understanding of the scientific evidence that we have about the effects of tree species diversity on ecosystem properties and processes is required to guide practical forest management as well as future research. However, current understanding is limited by the lack of an appropriate framework for evaluating the reported evidence. In this chapter we outline how research on mixed-spec...
متن کاملBalancing Detection and Eradication for Control of Epidemics: Sudden Oak Death in Mixed-Species Stands
Culling of infected individuals is a widely used measure for the control of several plant and animal pathogens but culling first requires detection of often cryptically-infected hosts. In this paper, we address the problem of how to allocate resources between detection and culling when the budget for disease management is limited. The results are generic but we motivate the problem for the cont...
